Answer:
What is Swan’s taxable gain on the distribution of the cottage?
Fair market value of property = 200000
Less: adjusted basis of property= 115000(150000-35000)
Taxable gain on distribution = 85000
What is Swan's current E&P after the distribution on 12/31/13?
Swans current E&P = 300000
Add: taxable gain on distribution = 85000
Less: distribution made = 165000(200000-35000)
After distribution E&P = 220000
What is the taxable dividend to the shareholder (if any)?
Taxable dividend to shareholders = 200000-35000 = 165000
What is the shareholder's basis in the cottage?

Answer: An ethical dilemma
Explanation:
An ethical dilemma is a situation where an individual is faced with making a decision between two options where if any option is chosen the individual might act against his/her moral principle. Like in the question, John is faced with the option of either complaining about child labor and then the child losses his/her source of income or allowing things to be as they already are.

Answer:
Plan 1= $40 per shares
Plan 2= $40 per shares
Explanation:
We can therefore calculate the price as the value of shares repurchased divided by the number of shares repurchased.
Hence:
Plan I, the value per share will be:
P = $120,000 / (15,000 – 12,000 shares)
P=$120,000/$3,000
P = $40 per share
Plan II, the value per share will be :
P = $140,000 / (15,000 – 11,500 shares)
P=$140,000/$3,500
P = $40 per share
Therefore the EPS for each of these plans is Plan l =$40 per shares and Plan ll=$40 per shares
Answer:
The remaining useful life of the plant asset is 2 years.
Explanation:
The depreciable cost of the asset is 44000 - 10000 = $34000
The straight line method charges a constant depreciation expense per year over the estimated useful life of the asset.
The depreciation expense per year is $3400.
The formula for straight line depreciation is,
Depreciation expense per year = (Cost - residual value) / estimated useful life
3400 = (44000 - 10000) / estimated useful life
3400 = 34000 / estimated useful life
Estimated useful life = 34000 / 3400 = 10 years
The accumulated depreciation has been charged for the amount of $27200. This represents a depreciation for 8 years.
27200 / 3400 = 8 years
Thus, the remaining useful life of the plant asset is 10 - 8 = 2 years
